Officers confirmed that a 1-year-old baby was taken from the car and is now in good condition.David Loewenberg, who witnessed the incident, said he saw an officer "hugging a child and taking that child away."

So I forget how it works. Does that make the kid grow up to be a super hero or a super villain?

A neighbor, 'said she lives two doors down from the suspect and said he only knew that she was a dental hygienist and that she drove too fast in a black Infiniti and a white BMW."I know one thing, she always drove too fast," '

The kid is the mastermind. All part of a plan to get him into the police station.

Gyrfalcon:Kittypie070: Amos Quito: Uh oh! Be prepared to be attacked by the Fark Secret Service Obama Defense Squad.

Here, let me start: I'M A IDIOT. WAAAAHHHH.

You forgot "leftist hivemind" and "OH GOD I AM BEING SAVAGED BY WOLVES IN HERE".

I didn't even know there was a "Fark Secret Service Obama Defense Squad."

Wow.

Well of course there is. It is told by the Birchers that we allegedly have huge Fartbama d!ck idols in every West Coast city, town, and one-traffic-light burg, which we burn incense and BBQ aborted babbys to, stage massive week-long healthcare orgies in front of, and droolinglyhoongh with our tongues every hour of every day. Our debauched worship of the 0bamessiah keeps us quite busy.

Allegedly.

Now mind you, I and a whole crapload of barely-even-center-lefty Farkers haven't seen a single speck of evidence of this in nigh on six years, buuut...you know how, um, imaginative those Birchers are.

MechaPyx:Cops these days are off the chain. Yeah she done farked up big time. She should have complied with the police instead of driving off. Maybe she panicked. So the cops start firing shots as the car speeds off. That seems reckless given all the civilians about. After a short chase they get the vehicle stopped. There's no indication she's armed. She could be but she hasn't fired any shots. She gets out the car and some trigger happy sonofabiatch later she's dead.

Look... a lotta guys go their whole careers without getting a single opportunity to kill someone.

When the chance presents itself, you don't hesitate, you don't ask questions, you don't start wool-gathering about "credible threats." You draw your weapon and fire, or you watch that opportunity vanish in a cloud of smoke like a million dollar lottery ticket carelessly tossed into a campfire.

jaytkay:Tatterdemalian: But the real question that needs to be answered is: why does reality keep doing things that makes the left look bad?

What about this story makes the left look bad?

It is well known that the pretorian guard near the white house is entirely composed of lefty officers, and it reports directly to His Magnificence Fartbongo. Also, His Magnificence was feeling very pissy today because of the whole slimdown thing, so he personally ordered for her life to be forfeit for intruding into His personal space. Study it out.

From the Zimmerman threads, I learned from all of the opinionated know-it-alls that whenever someone shoots and kills an unarmed person and then claims it was in self-defense, the "law" requires there to be arrest and a trial, so that we can then find out what happened.

I also learned that you don't need to have evidence of guilt before the arrest-and-trial phase begins. It's OK for the trial to be a fact-finding exercise.

Also, the shooter is presumed to be a murderer until he can prove otherwise. He shot someone, right?

Also, it's perfectly acceptable to make your shooter walk his investigators through the scene and have him give multiple recorded statements without an attorney.

And any exculpatory statements he makes are to be given zero credence whatsoever, even if they are later corroborated independently.

So, when will the "hero" cop that shot and killed an unarmed woman as she was exiting her car be arrested and stand trial?

Well, her co-workers say she had a daughter exactly that age. Are you wanting DNA evidence? Not enough time yet. No one else seems to have reported a missing kid today in Conn. or the surrounding area, but of course, she could have dumped her real child somewhere else and kidnapped a kid from some person who hasn't noticed yet.

Kittypie070:Atypical Person Reading Fark: There's lots more to this story, and it's being reported in various places. Suggest you read it and post about that instead of your own fantasies about drunkeness.

The Obama baby drama story is funny though.

I find it astonishinly boring and it hasn't even been an entire day yet.

Well, yes, in light of the barricade video, it has lost its tropiness.

Gyrfalcon:So she was just an ORDINARY crazy drunk with a baby in the car trying to smash her way through the White House gate and running from cops ordering her to stop? That means we can still feel sorry for her and excoriate the cops for their overreach, and not praise them for taking down a crazed gunman/terrorist trying to kill the President?

Yes, anyone who desecrates the sacred sod in the vicinity of His Wonderfulness and then flees at a high rate of speed, then stopped miles away when surrounded by police, may not TECHNICALLY pose a threat to His Magificence's person, but she has offended His dignity, and for that her life is forfeit.
